Start-ups and corporations trying new things be like:
"Why should we pay a developer or a company to develop this and this for us when we can just:
- start a competition.
- get free design mockups and code.
- decide which is better.
- reward a small prize and maybe some freebies to the competitors.
- profit. FREE CHEAP CODE AND DESIGNS!!!"

It might be the reasonable and logical thing to do from a business standpoint if its about code you need to rarely maintain..

But from an independent developer viewpoint - FUCK YOU AND THE SLOW ENSLAVEMENT OF MY SPECIE!!!

    You remind me of that Facebook event they held in my region a month ago where participants were all QAs and where asked to find bugs in return for prizes.

    They pretty much did Facebook a huge favor in finding all those bugs FOR FREE!
    A friend I know, got a free T-Shirt from it, and others got tablets.

    So ya pay 4000$ and get a million bug reported instead of paying huge amount to get those reports
